TV's Best Finales Ever

Six Feet Under
After opening every episode for five seasons with a death, this HBO drama began its finale with the birth of Nate and Brenda's son. But the producers made up for it by killing off everyone before the credits rolled. Mixing humor with moving emotion (Brenda was talked to death and Claire died blind at 102), the show brilliantly gave us closure for all the characters we'd grown to love.
